Escape is handled by the DefDlgProc.

Duh... I guess look for it explicity in Pretraslate message woudl be
one way to do it:
BOOL CDlg::PreTranslateMessage(MSG* pMsg)
{
if (pMsg->message == WM_KEYDOWN &&
(pMsg->wParam == VK_ESCAPE))
return TRUE;

return CDialog::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg);
}


Yes, this would work very well. Maybe my tip about removing the
accelerator is bogus; there may not even be a VK_ESCAPE accelerator since
Escape only closes a CDialog, not a CWnd/CMainFrame
